We provide a virtual machine where everything is already set up, there's also a video on how to use it (see Moodle).

If you don't want to use the virtual machine, run ./setup.sh (Debian/Ubuntu/WSL, replace your package manager, e.g., brew on macOS). This makes sure that you have OCaml and some packages installed via opam. As an editor we recommend using Visual Studio Code with extension (or vim/emacs if you know it). All Linux and macOS work, under Windows use WSL and this extension.

Use git pull to get the new exercise files (and templates for the homework) every week (or more often if we need to fix something). You can use git log --patch to keep track of changes. If you use the provided virtual machine, there will be a little downward-arrow indicating that you should pull online changes. If you want, you can push your solutions to a private repository (if you want to avoid merging, rename your solutions). To submit your homework, upload your .ml file(s) to Moodle.

There will be some basic tests provided with the homeworks. For grading, more elaborate tests will be run on your submissions after the deadline. You can test your homework by just executing the corresponding file, e.g., ocaml hw05.ml (set up as the default build task (ctrl+shift+b) in .vscode/).
